Inaugural Ball

Gov. Mark Dayton took his second oath into office on Monday, but he celebrated his second term in style Saturday night. Dayton and Lt. Gov. Tina Smith hosted the North Star Ball at the St. Paul Union Depot. The event was open to the public, and included music, food and mingling.

Gov. Mark Dayton marks his first week in office Saturday with an Inaugural Ball at the Minneapolis Convention Center. It’s going to be more low-key than previous Inaugural celebrations, but with a couple of interesting twists.
